Brownies & Lemonade; genre-bending lineup ft. Netsky, G Jones B2B Eprom, Rossy, Apashe, + more!
Los Angeles’s Brownies & Lemonade has been one of the fastest rising party brands in the US. Notorious for bringing the craziest vibes and unearthing genre-bending dance music, they have become a staple brand associated with EZoo, who will once again be bringing a taste of the west coast to the east coast with their fourth appearance at Ezoo. Attendees can expect a wide variety of genres and cutting edge electronic music that represents the energy and vibe that Brownies & Lemonade curates in all of their shows, even the smallest most intimate ones. Brownies & Lemonade will showcase a powerhouse lineup that highlights many left of center electronic music artists that are pushing genre boundaries, taking over The Grove on Friday, September 2nd.
Fronted by d&b star Netsky, who’s accomplishments on the charts are just as impressive as his live shows, his set is a must for new and returning Ezoo fans. The dynamic & world influenced duo, Memba, will grace the stage, along with the cinematic sounds of Apashe. One of the scene’s most exciting up and coming artists is Rossy, already having a few B&L events under her belt, will be making her Ezoo debut. Her ability to blend trap, future bass, and classical components has resulted in an iconic sound that has earned her a seat at the scene’s biggest festivals. Of The Trees will also be playing Ezoo for the first time, showcasing their hypnotic and unique sounds while Deadcrow, known for his innovative approach to wave music, will infuse his set with electrifying grime, trap, and melodic sounds. It wouldn’t be a proper Brownies & Lemonade takeover without epic B2B’s. B&L are always championing marginalized artists in the bass community and Jon Casey and Capshun are two rising artists that “deserve more festival recognition”. Listening to each of their individual tracks, it’s easy to gather that this b2b is bound to be a set oozing with pure energy. G Jones and Eprom‘s B2B will put on display two immensely talented artists at the pinnacle of their craft with an audio visual experience like none other.
Carl Cox; House & Techno fueled lineup ft. Loco Dice, Andrea Oliva B2B Ilario Alicante, DJ Holographic + more
Carl Cox is making a triumphant comeback to the festival after 11 years. He’ll be performing a rare US festival set while also showcasing highly sought-after live acts at his Carl Cox Invites stage, taking over the Hilltop Arena on Sunday, September 4th.
It’s been over a decade since Carl has played EZoo and this year he’s treating dance music aficionados to a very special house and techno fueled lineup featuring Detroit’s DJ Holographic, known for delivering a mix of musical cuisine that combines House beats, passionate R&B, Hip Hop, unreserved Disco, true Detroit Techno, and Motown. Carl is also bringing back a close friend who he frequently shares the stage with, Loco Dice. It’s also been 11 years since Loco Dice has performed at Electric Zoo, making this reunion all the more special. Additionally, NYC’s tech house ambassador Charles Meyer has a natural aptitude for giving partygoers not just what they want, but also what they need, making him a perfect addition to the stage. Joining all the way from the shores of Ibiza is Chelina Manuhutu, a talented, strong and exotic feminine force and one of the most exciting artists in the underground music global scene. Carl will be showcasing new music off of his highly anticipated forthcoming album, ‘Electronic Generations‘, to the Ezoo crowd this year.
Topping off the Carl Cox Invites stage will be Andrea Oliva B2B Ilario Alicante. Andrea Oliva has earned himself a sterling reputation over his 25 year career. He continues to command the stage at Ushuaïa throughout the summer, headlining one of the island’s most popular parties. Ilario Alicante’s rise has been nothing short of meteoric, known for slinging sizzling house and techno sets across the biggest festival stages. Together, Andrea Oliva and Ilario Alicante are poised to deliver an unforgettable set for EZoo fans.
